I'm confused why that function is added here but it's completely unclear
in what wider context it's called. This is really hard to follow.

Yeah, this is not just a bit ugly but also likely wrong because:

sudo mount --bind /dev/pmem /opt/muhaha

fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/opt/muhaha", [...])

or a simple mknod to create that device somewhere else. You likely want:

lookup_bdev(fc->source, &dev);

if (!DEVICE_NUMBER_SOMETHING_SOMETHING_SANE(dev))
	return invalfc(fc, "SOMETHING SOMETHING...

bdev_open_by_dev(dev, ....)

(This reminds me that I should get back to making it possible to specify
"source" as a file descriptor instead of a mere string with the new
mount api...)

Hm, I suspected that FAMFS_BLKDEV_MODE would be wrong based on:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/13556dbbd8d0f51bc31e3bdec796283fe85c6baf.1708709155.git.john@xxxxxxxxxx

It's defined as FMODE_READ | FMODE_WRITE which is wrong. But these
helpers want BLOCK_OPEN_READ | BLOCK_OPEN_WRITE.

@bdev_handle will be gone as of v6.9 so you might want to wait until
then to resend.
